MARINARA SAUCE / SPAGHETTI SAUCE VIA BARI, ITALY

Steps:

• In a 4 quart pot heat olive oil on medium heat and add THINLY sliced fresh garlic. Sauté until garlic becomes very lightly golden on edges. If garlic burns, discard and start again as this definitely affects the taste in a negative way.
• Add can of crushed tomatoes. Tomatoes should be slightly chunky and not a puree. Turn heat up just a bit until mixture starts to bubble up, but not boil.
• Place dried oregano in palm of one hand and use other to crush it over the pot. Add in salt and pepper and stir.
• Lower heat to medium-low and cover pot, simmering for 20 minutes. Check occasionally to stir. Enjoy immediately.

SPAGHETTI MARINARA

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil and garlic in a large skillet. Cook over medium heat until the garlic is golden around the edges, about 3 minutes. Add the onion, oregano and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the onion is soft but not browned, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and their juices and 1/2 cup water; continue cooking until the sauce is slightly reduced, about 20 minutes. Stir in the basil and season with salt. Keep warm over low heat.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Add the pasta to the sauce along with the butter and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Increase the heat to medium and toss to coat, adding the remaining cooking water as needed to loosen the sauce. Transfer the pasta to bowls and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• (Ahead of time, steam or boil 3-4 cups carrots until very tender. You can either use a food processor to purée cooked carrots right after cooking or you can add cooked carrots to the sauce and purée right in the pot with a hand-held blender).
• Combine all ingredients (except Dehydrated Onions and Olive Oil) in large sauce pot and bring to boil - stirring regularly.
• Turn down heat to low simmer.
• Meanwhile, pour enough Olive Oil in frying pan to saturate the Dehydrated Onions and sauté on Med heat until golden brown.
• Add onions to sauce pot and continue simmering and stirring regularly for 30-60 minutes.
• Remove the cooked Bay leaves.
• Serve and enjoy!
• Makes about 5 quarts of sauce - so if you're really on the ball, have 3-4 sterilized quart jars and lids ready to transfer all the leftover sauce into for later use.
